Mean Girls (2004) - 4K Open Matte 35mm Scan [WIP]
Time

All 35mm is meant to be run at 24fps, but anyway there is no such thing as scanning at any fps. All the scanner does is snap each frame perfectly at whatever speed it needs to do it properly. You can then tell playback to run whatever speed you want (although 24.00fps would match the intended cinema speed). If you have Cinema DTS audio it is best to just leave it all at 24fps so you don’t have to stretch the audio and introduce artifacts. If you are gonna combine to home media audio that has often been timed for 23.976 so it is best to leave that audio as is rather than mess with it yet again and just set the metadata so the video is played back at 23.976 (but don’t like have software try to re-render from 24fps down to 23.976 as that adds all sorts of artifacts for no point and takes forever!! just leave it untouched and have the metadata say the video is to be played back at 23.976).

How do you change the metadata?

Only interested if it’s LPCM. FLAC would be weird, maybe.

FLAC is a container.

No fucking shit. LPCM would be easier if there’s a want to burn the disc again with replacing an audio track or making a custom Blu-ray disc.

Let me say it again… FLAC is a container. Obviously you don’t understand. If it was a zip folder, would that be too “weird” for you too? What about MKV? Too strange for you?

Can anyone help me get my head around this? Am I right with the following:

So in early 2000s the MGM DVD of this had the mono track but it was deemed slightly different to the Laserdisc version.

In 2006 the Terminator came to Blu-ray (MPEG-2) without the mono tracks and this annoyed people. Was it not a direct sync with the MGM DVD either?

In about 2012 again the film got put out on Blu-Ray but this time it was a MPEG 4 AVC with much higher bitrate. This is the version people want the mono track for?

The 2001 MGM DVD utilizes the international mono mix rather than the US one

However, outside of the 1991 laserdisc (which contains the US mix), it sounds the best regarding fidelity, all other mono mastering (including the 1995 and 1997 Image releasee) have noise reduction and sound noticeably worse

Is this LD mono still available somewhere? I can’t find it anywhere
